Who receives or approves this ITP
The ITP is usually submitted to the client representative, consultant, resident engineer, or project management consultant for review and approval before the related work activity starts.
Inspection scope
Covers permits, offloading setup, bonding/grounding, hose condition, bund capacity and integrity, segregation, SDS availability, spill kit readiness, and extinguisher compliance.
Typical hold, witness, and review points
Hold: Initial bund validation and segregation setup. Witness: First delivery offload, hydro-test of bund, extinguisher placement verification.
Typical inspection records
Delivery checklists, bund calculations and hydro-test reports, segregation matrix, SDS index, spill kit logs, extinguisher registers, discharge permits.
Important approval note
This ITP is an AI-assisted editable starting point, not a pre-approved document. Before use on any project, all inspection activities, hold points, and acceptance criteria must be reviewed and approved by the relevant parties (superintendent, principal contractor, or client representative) in accordance with your contract and project quality plan.
Always verify acceptance criteria against your applicable drawings, specifications, and regulatory requirements. Hold points must be confirmed with the relevant authority before work proceeds past that point.
